LKAB has three pelletizing plants of Grate-Kiln type, two in Kiruna and one in Svappavaara. In the grate the pellets is dried and preheated with hot air on a grated conveyor belt before the actual sintering in the kiln. The pellets are then cooled and the hot air is recycled in the system to the grate.

The project also included a concentrator and ancillary equipment. The world's largest grate-kiln pelletising plant, KK4 has an initial capacity of 5Mt/y of pellets, with the potential to increase its capacity to 6Mt/y. With the contribution of the pelletising plants, the production capacity of LKAB …

Historik. Konstruktionen har sitt ursprung från cementverken, med en bandugn (grate), en roterugn (rotary kiln) och en kylare.Det första grate-kiln verket byggdes 1960 av Allis-Chalmers, i Humboldt Mine i delstaten Michigan, USA.Under 1950-och 60-talet byggdes främst verk i Nordamerika, och då främst i USA. 1969 byggde LKAB det första grate-kiln verket i Sverige (och Europa).
LKAB har tre kulsinterverk av s k grate-kiln typ, två stycken i Kiruna samt ett i Svappavaara. I grate-kiln systemet sker torkning och förvärmning av råkulor på en bandugn (grate), vidare bränning/sintring i en roterugn (kiln) och slutligen värmeåtervinning vid kylning av pelletsen i en roterande kylare.

Questions And Answers On Iron Ore Grate Kiln Pelletizing Plant. LKAB has six pelletizing plants three in Kiruna two in Malmberget and one in Svappavaara The total capacity of the plants amounts to approximately 28 million tonnes of processed iron ore products per year The pellets are formed In the pelletizing plant a clay mineral bentonite is added as a binder in the iron ore concentrate Pellets.
LKAB has three pelletizing plants of the grate-kiln type, two in Kiruna and one in Svappavaara. The grate-kiln system dries and preheats the raw pellets on a traveling roster (grate) before sintering them in a rotating oven (kiln). Finally the pellets are cooled in a rotating cooler and the heat is recovered and re-used in the grate.
